Summary

A SUNDAY drop in episode?! OK MA'AM! First of all, happy Mother's Day to all the moms and mothering voices out there who mean so much to us and our miniBFFs! I'm incredibly grateful for the women around me who are mothering in SO many ways. We recently got to talk to our friend, Dr. Nijay Gupta back on Episode 464 (be sure to go back and listen if you haven't heard it yet!). And since we talked about women all throughout the Bible, we wanted to save our conversation about Mary, the mother of Jesus for TODAY! I can't say this enough, but I highly recommend Dr. Gupta's book Tell Her Story. I learned SO much from it! . . . . . Go to hereforyoutour.com to get your tickets to our upcoming tour this June!

0:00.0	Hi friends, happy Mother's Day. I am Annie F Downs and welcome to this bonus Mother's
0:08.6	Day episode for you today on that sounds fun. I'm so happy to be here with you today.
0:14.0	First of all, happy Mother's Day to my mom, happy Mother's Day to my sister, happy Mother's
0:19.0	Day to so many of my friends who are raising my mini BFFs. I am so, so thankful.
0:25.3	Happy Mother's Day to all the women who are mothering me in ministry and mentorship,
0:31.8	in friendship, and I'm just really grateful today for the women around me who are mothering
0:37.2	in a thousand ways. I know Mother's Day has a lot of really complicated feelings for
0:42.3	some of us, whether it is joyful and tender or hopeful or maybe a little hopeless. I want
0:49.3	to invite you to listen and for the next 15-ish minutes, I recently got to interview Dr.
0:54.8	Nejay Gupta on episode 464 of the That Sounds Fun Podcast and you loved it, y'all loved
1:01.4	it. Y'all shared that show like crazy and told me in every way and told Nejay in every
1:08.4	way how much you enjoyed what you learned and how on our mind blown emoji scale, this was
1:14.5	high. I know. Y'all gotta go back and listen if you haven't yet. But Nejay's book, Tell
1:19.2	Her Story, is a beautiful piece of work on how women led, taught and ministered all throughout
1:23.8	scripture and particularly a lot in the gospels. And as we talked about the women all throughout
1:28.9	the Bible, we decided to save our conversation about Mary, the mother of Jesus for today.
1:35.7	There are some super interesting Easter eggs that really stand out about her, not just Mary
1:40.8	as the mother of Jesus, but Mary as the disciple of Jesus. What can we learn from the way she
1:47.2	lived and what do we see in this relationship between a mother and her son, but also a mother
1:52.4	and her savior? It is so fascinating. And as you can imagine, as you remember from Nejay last
1:58.8	time, lots of mind blown emoji is coming. So here is my short conversation for you on this Mother's
2:04.7	Day about Mary, the mother of Jesus with Dr. Nejay Gupta. Dr. Nejay Gupta, welcome back. Happy
	...
